Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine
O what a foretaste of glory divine
Heir of salvation, purchase of God, 
born of his Spirit, washed in his blood. 

This is my story, this is my song, 
praising my Saviour all the daylong; 
this is my story; this is my song, 
praising my Saviour all the day long. 

Perfect submission, perfect delight, 
visions of rapture now burst on my sight; 
angels descending bring from above 
echoes of mercy, whispers of love. 

Perfect submission, all is at rest; 
I in my Saviour am happy and blest, 
watching and waiting, looking above, 
filled with his goodness, lost in his love.
